Orienteering race 28:59 *** 3.81 km (7:36 / km) +30m 7:19 / km
ahr:157 max:193 spiked:10/12c shoes: VJ Falcons 8
US Nationals Middle at St. Patrick’s Park near South Bend, IN. Brown B course - 2.9k, 40m climb - M65, F55, F60. Pretty much a sprint course with only about 4 moderately technical controls. Definitely favored the runners.
Lost 1.5 - 2 minutes on control 5 when I failed to take the time to carefully read the details in the control circle. A little off on 10 but spotted the bag from a ways off. Probably could’ve pushed harder on controls 8 to 11 in the woods but was focusing on hitting them accurately. Nice course for the area but I’m not sure I’d consider this championship terrain.
About 50F with light rain starting just about as I started and continuing through the race. Finished 4th in M65, 6 seconds back of Steve Tarry but almost 2:30 behind Charlie S. Also 4th (of 17) overall on Brown B.

Event: HVO/DVOA Dual Meet @ Wanaque
11 AM
Orienteering race 1:05:29 **** 5.05 km (12:58 / km) +235m 10:31 / km
ahr:129 max:171 spiked:6/12c shoes: VJ Falcons 9
Brown course at Wanaque. Using the map (mostly) from the 80s. Struggled with matching map and terrain. The 5m map contours are actually about 7.5m, so prominent terrain features may or may not show up. The area is very rocky and I never got to the point where I understood what rock was actually mapped. The map is actually pretty good - I just didn’t adapt. Biggest error was on #9 where I think the bag was hung on rocky ground near the edge of the circle rather then the described boulder field which was at the center of the circle. Carefully relocated and returned to where I had been and noticed other people at the actual control location, but 6 or 7 minutes later. Lost additional time on 4 other controls. Probably could’ve been about 20 minutes faster overall. 50s and mostly cloudy so nice running weather.
